Talk:Flying polyp

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Aren't the flying polyp and the Elder Thing the same thing?

According to these scraps of information, the basis of the fear was a horrible elder race of half-polypous, utterly alien entities which had come through space from immeasurably distant universes... But as the aeons passed there came vague, evil signs that the elder things were growing strong and numerous in the inner world...

They were also mentioned in The Shadow Out of Time as leaving a circular 5-toe footprint - sounds about right for an elder thing. Both were also alien.
